Match.com Experience: How it works

Match.com operates like almost any other online dating portal, but it does have the advantage of being one of the most experienced and well-known on the market. The company was founded in 1995 in the USA and therefore has a lot of experience in the online dating world. Globally, the company has over 60 million members… enough to provide a colorful mix of people and a potential match for everyone! Most of our experiences with Match.com have been positive, as there is really something for everyone on this site.

What kind of people use Match.com?

This is a dating platform that is designed for all singles, whether you want to find someone locally, nationally or internationally. For example, you could live in Manchester but be moving to Berlin. If you want to make contact with someone before you arrive, just search for people in Berlin. We found so many different types of users in our test. In addition, we found that most members are aged between 20 and 30.

What is free on Match.com?

Registration is completely free. Plus you get a free questionnaire to fill out during registration – so that match suggestions are made a bit easier. The form is not supposed to be a basis for contact proposals but rather to make filling in your profile much easier. You can also look at other profiles for free. If you want to initiate contact though, you’ll have to pay.
